Description

Highlights: • Replacing ZnO with SnO2 caused Sn4+ to displace Zn2+ from sites in the crystal. • As SnO2 content increased, the surface of ZTO films became smooth due to decreasing grain sizes. • The resistivity decreased from 172 to 8.75 mΩ cm, and optical transmittance increased in the visible region. • The bandgap decreased from 3.25 to 3.13 eV at [SnO2] = 0–10%, respectively.
